I'm sorry I'm gonna post tomorrow dun worry 'ze doktor ees een'

@agentmanatee Just be careful with Urgrugg. He's not your average ork... in fact, best to stop at the arm. Staying clear of his chest area is especially important.

As shall I, if not today; time for the big reveal.

@Legion X51 I'm certainly intrigued to see what you come up with. And if you enjoy playing as members of the Adepta Sororitas...

I'm now in two minds - I have a few 40K characters, and this seems more like a Rogue Trader-esque campaign, whilst the other is more Dark Heresy-esque and possibly more fitting for Sister Lydia, despite her increasingly jaded, cynical, and sometimes downright hostile attitude towards the Ecclesiarchy. Not sure whether to use her here or there - any suggestions?

If I use her here, expect an Arbitrator in that other RP, because Power Maul & Storm Shield ftw. If I use her there, then I'll probably consider a veteran Guardsman with a plasma weapon or two over here.

@Legion X51 I don't know that an Arbitrator would necessarily be a good plan in the Sororitas RP, mainly because it's intended specifically for Ecclesiarchy mebers to be involved. Just on that basis, I'd recommend playing the Guardsman in this and Sister Lydia in EWEW.

@Jbcool I think we're ready to go whenever you are, Jb.

I'm posting tomorrow even if it kills me

@agentmanatee

Excellent. I'd threaten to kill you myself if you failed, but... you're poised to do terrible things to my character, and @Jbcool's way more deserving of killing at the current moment anyway...

(<3)

@Jbcool Worth mentioning, but Lucius isn't wearing any armour. He's got clothes, which are now badly damaged, but the only Dark Angel in armour is Xepherial. That said, expect a post from me within a couple of days.

@BCTheEntity I too noticed this, and was sorely disappointed.

*taps finger* Well... things are certainly moving along at a breakneck pace now.

Is it ever?

@Necroes@Klomster Yeah, I've been meaning to post, but I'm struggling to come up with something for Lucius to do. I'd argue the most important person right now is @agentmanatee, whose promise to post "tomorrow" was broken three days ago... but that's just me.

@agentmanatee might be feeling bad he didn't get a post up @BCTheEntity.

While manatee should put a post up, i'm not gonna blame or hate on him for not doing so.

I totally would. However, he told me last night that he has been delayed due to exams. I will give him some time then, but I have to say this rp was amazing until he single handedly stopped it. Manatee, I hope you realize this and will make sincere effort as soon as you can.

Eh, I don't blame any one player. @agentmanatee isn't really exclusively to blame here. We had problems with people posting in a timely manner before he even asked to join.

Personally, what gets my goat is that, in an RP where we're supposedly expected to post once a week at minimum, I've basically been forced not to in over two. And yet, when our GM Does finally get around to making his mandatory, what do we get? An internal monologue (completely unnecessary), a response to the actions of a single character (whose appearance was inaccurately described), and the completely random death of a character who 1.) shouldn't have died, 2.) had no relevance to the current scene at all, and 3.) whose death in no way impacts the narrative as it stands. Really good stuff, there.

And, in all that, what Doesn't said post do? Progress the plot in Any meaningful way, despite being controlled by the only player(read:GM) currently able to do so.

Well, I've had my rant... anyone else care to weigh in?

@Necroes I had the exact same thoughts, however I assume jb is merely giving tee a chance to do things before we find out were in some kind of group escape pod or something...

Yeah, my biggest issue is that we technically have no idea what kind of room we're standing in.

It has glass pods. Fascinating, it would be cool if i had a description and perhaps an idea what my TECHPRIEST character might make of this machinery.
The same with the techmarine.
Even if we don't know how to run the machinery, we will be able to tell what sort of equipment it is.

As it stands now i see a large bulkhead door we've collapsed approx 2-3 metres from, there is a few machines and then there's a black void which is the rest of the room.

Not much to work with.

I mean, it could even be a closet for all i know.

This is exactly what comes to mind when reading the above posts, that exact quote, because in my mind it is exactly what's happening here; there are only so many times I can apologise, so this time I won't even bother. Instead I'll just say this.

I work long hours, and recently (due to holidays in the UK) I have been working over nights and into the early hours of the next morning, when I rise a few hours before I need to go to work (usually one or two) I don't really have the wherewithal to construct a post.

Now, I understand that my post wasn't exactly the best, but being picked apart by my players - especially one that doesn't seem to have even attempted GMing on this site, yet is quite happy to poke fingers - is not productive on any level, and in fact can cause people to feel quite shit. I'll get a post up, I'll describe the chamber (just for you, @Klomster) and then I'll progress the plot (just for you, @Necroes), and then I'll attempt to make this the last tirade I have without blowing a blood vessel while I rub my reddened eyes.

And although not entirely correct, @Wraithblade6 was nearly correct, I was actually waiting for some (anyone) to ask the obvious "where are we?", "what is this room?", "what the Throne is in those strange tanks, and why should Lucius not hammer away at them with his fists?", "is there any way out of this room?" Generally anything that I bunch of volatile people suddenly trapped in a room with glowing containment chambers might ask. Which so far no one has even bothered to do, I think being too distracted by Greenskins whacking people in the head and the subsequent fallout.

Now that I've had my rant, unwarranted or not, I'll get working on that post now.

@Jbcool ...you know what, that last bit is a question that makes sense to ask, and I'm actually a bit annoyed with myself for not thinking of it. I'm not going to comment on Klomster, Necroes, or Wraithblade's opinions, but could I ask you to hold off on writing that post so Lucius can ask those questions?
